Dead socket connection
The dead socket termination (DST) port is used to terminate all existing ethernet connections. A dead
socket is a socket that is held open by the instrument because it has not been properly closed. This
most often happens when the host computer is turned off or restarted without first closing the socket.
This port cannot be used for command and control functions.
Use the dead socket termination port to manually disconnect a dead session on any open socket. All
existing ethernet connections will be terminated and closed when the connection to the dead socket
termination port is closed.
Logging LAN trigger events in the event log
You can use the event log to record all LXI triggers generated and received by the Model 2657A, and
you can view the event log using any command interface or the embedded web interface. The
following figure shows the view of the LXI event log from the embedded web interface.
